Great work! I've been working IRL with these when I was younger and I have to say you nailed it👍🏻
What colour did you use for the air intakes?

@J35J - thanks for your comments. High praise coming from someone who knows this aircraft personally! For the intakes I used Tamiya X-10 "Gun Metal". I used XF-16 "Flat Aluminum" on the leading edges, but if I built this again, I'd probably use X-10 there as well. Everything is topped off with two layers of Mr. Color GX100 Super Clear III and one layer of Mr. Color GX114 Flat.

Thanks for colour instructions. The intakes can be hard to colour match, especially when the are a little bit torn and wheathered.
At that point you almost get the tone of worn fibre glass.
